Description:
This book will give you confidence, motivation, and actionable steps to make any dream a reality. NASA Rocket Scientist Kevin J DeBruin shares NASA's design principles and proven practices that allowed him, and several notable figures, to achieve their dreams and defy limitations. Think like a rocket scientist, these steps and habits can be used to get through trauma, figure out your path, explore options, embody perseverance, and ultimately accomplish your goals. This book was sparked by a TEDx talk given by the author in March 2022 titled 'Launch Yourself'. Kevin translated his knowledge of NASA's spacecraft design principles as an analog to his journey through adversity to achieving his dream of becoming a NASA Rocket Scientist. Kevin's years of experience at NASA designing 30+ missions with the advanced design teams along with his expert storytelling ability as a self-employed Space Expert & Educator, make him the perfect person to write this book. Kevin has studied the stories of successful people and drawn analogs to the NASA design process as well. He continues to put this methodology into play everyday as he continues to turn all his new dreams into reality. This book targets aspiring individuals who want to know that any dream they have is possible. The reader will want a guide to follow to pursue their goals. Historical anecdotes, Kevin's story of perseverance against continual rejection, and the showcase of numerous notable success stories will show the reader that if they are truly passionate about something, nothing is impossible. It's for the dreamers, the self-doubters, the struggling individuals who don't know if they can get what they want. It is for those who are interested in incredible journeys to reach success and the techniques to get there. Duration - 4h 55m. Author - Kevin J DeBruin. Narrator - Kevin J DeBruin.
